OCTOBER 14, 2015 <br />Gravel Pit Noxious Weed Management Plan <br />BEAR RIVER SAND & GRAVEL <br />Introduction <br />Noxious weeds are invasive plants that are not native to North America and as a <br />consequence have no natural predators or diseases to keep them controlled. They pose a <br />serious threat to native plant populations, vegetation communities, agriculture, wildlife, <br />and property values. The State of Colorado and Routt County require noxious weed <br />management on public and private land. <br />The gravel pit operated by Bear River Sand & Gravel was inspected by Routt County <br />Weed Program Supervisor, Greg A. Brown, on October 13, 2015. In order to be in <br />compliance with the Colorado Noxious Weed Act, Routt County regulations, and the <br />terms and conditions of the gravel permit for this property, the following named plants <br />must be controlled. Any weeds on the County or State Noxious weed lists not named <br />below but detected after this plan is written shall also be controlled. (See appendix -B and <br />C.) <br />The following noxious weeds are subject to management requirements, according to the <br />Routt County Weed Plan or the Colorado noxious weed act of 2003. _X indicates <br />weeds observed on 10/13/15. <br />Routt County Weed List: (complete) <br />white top (Cardaria draba) <br />_X_houndstongue (Cynoglossum officianale) <br />spotted lcnapweed (Centaurea maculosa) <br />_diffuse lcnapweed (Centaurea diffusa) <br />_Russian knapweed (Centaurea repens) <br />meadow knapweed (Centaurea pratensis) <br />_leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula) <br />_Cypress spurge (Euphorbia cyparrissias) <br />_myrtle spurge (Euphorbia myrsinites <br />`yellow toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) <br />_Dalmatian toadflax (Linaria genistifolia) <br />orange hawkweed (Hieracium aurantiacum) <br />purple loosestrife (Lythrum saltcaria) <br />
